From Talks to Tunes: A Look Back at Staff Domain’s Awesome August 2024 Events

August was a month of significant milestones and vibrant events at Staff Domain. We marked our calendars for two key events: the inaugural SDx Talk on 23rd August 2024 and the Mid-Year Town Hall on 28th August 2024.

Launching the First-Ever SDx Talk

On 23rd August, we introduced the first in a series of SDx Talks—an initiative aimed at inspiring and engaging our workforce. The inaugural session featured Marlon Molmisa, a known Filipino leadership speaker and corporate trainer in the learning and talent development industry. His talk, “Beyond Boundaries: Building a Life-Fulfilling Career,” delved into the importance of cultivating a positive work culture, embracing core work values, and the crucial skill of active listening.

This SDx Talk was just the beginning. We have a robust series of future talks lined up, covering essential topics like employee wellness, productivity enhancement, and career growth. These sessions are designed to equip us all with the knowledge and inspiration to excel in our roles.

Informing the Workforce at the Mid-Year Town Hall

The Mid-Year Town Hall, held on 28th August, was a great opportunity for us to connect directly with our founders. They provided crucial updates on the company’s progress and future direction. They also took the time to address our questions on key topics such as wellness and health benefits, educational incentives, and enhancements to our human resource management platform.

One of the standout mentions during the Town Hall was the immediate feedback mechanism, Talk to the CEO. This allowed us to share our thoughts directly with the CEO, ensuring that our voices were heard and valued.

 

Celebrating Excellence at the LEFRO Awards

This August also marked the celebration of the LEFRO Awards in the Philippines, with South Africa set to follow. These awards are an employee-driven initiative that recognises individuals who embody our core values. The winners, selected through peer evaluations and a committee review, were honoured with cash prizes.

The 2024 LEFRO Awardees:

  • Listen actively to ensure understanding: Ronabeth Flores
  • Embrace every growth opportunity to help kick goals: Honeylove Tapar
  • Find a way, always, and stay solution-focused: Aileen So
  • Respect people, time, views, expectations, and deadlines: Victory Nard Gabelo
  • Open communication that is timely, honest, and receptive to feedback: Tricia Julian Olatan

Rocking the Evening: A Mini-Concert to Remember

To cap off our celebrations, we were treated to a mini-concert by a popular Filipino rock band. They energised the crowd with a mix of cover songs and their hit singles, proving a perfect complement to a day of recognition and engagement.

A Word from Leadership

At Staff Domain, our commitment to growth and employee engagement goes beyond just words. As our Chief Executive Officer Justin Pavsic expressed, “Staff Domain has always had the catchphrase ‘The smart place to grow.’ For us, we want it to be more than a line. We wanted it to be impactful to you guys and be able to invest in you by investing in great speakers and other events to really make this a fantastic place to work.”

Co-founder and Chief Financial Officer Ben Rajah also encouraged everyone to actively participate in these events and highlighted our company’s upcoming expansion plans. “We give people options to do things in South Africa and the Philippines, and now we’re adding India to the portfolio, which means we can cater to software developers, who are a bit more abundant there, and accountants.”

Looking Ahead

The SDx Talks and tiny desk concerts are latest line of employee activities for the year. With a strong start to this new series of events, we can all look forward to more exciting opportunities and engagements in the months to come.
